How Far Is Windcrest from Fort Sam Houston and JBSA-Randolph?

Windcrest TX is one of the closest incorporated cities to JBSA-Fort Sam Houston in all of San Antonio. For military families, the proximity data is compelling:

• JBSA-Fort Sam Houston: approximately 6.2 miles — a 10–15 minute commute via Walzem Rd and I-35
• JBSA-Randolph (Universal City): approximately 12 miles north via Loop 410 and I-35 — approximately 15–20 minutes
• JBSA-Lackland: approximately 20–25 miles west via Loop 410

This location is unmatched for dual-military couples assigned to Fort Sam and Randolph, or any family where commute time to JBSA matters. You're inside Loop 410 on the northeast side — one of the most central and convenient residential positions in the entire metro for base access.

What Is Windcrest TX Like as a Community?

Windcrest is a small incorporated city entirely within Bexar County, surrounded by San Antonio on all sides. Despite its size, it has a strong independent community identity, its own city government, parks, and services. NEISD (North East Independent School District) serves Windcrest residents through Windcrest Elementary and Roosevelt High School at 5110 Walzem Rd.

What Windcrest is perhaps most famous for is its annual Light-Up Windcrest holiday tradition — a decades-old community event where residents create elaborate, themed holiday light displays that draw visitors from across San Antonio every December. The 2025 theme was "A Storybook Christmas." It's a beloved local tradition that reflects the tight-knit character of the community.

Windcrest also offers:

• Well-established neighborhoods with mature trees and larger lots
• No HOA on this particular property
• Easy access to Loop 410, I-35, and Walzem Rd for commuting
• Proximity to northeast SA shopping — The Forum at Olympia Parkway, major grocery and dining
• Quiet residential streets with community pride

What Is the Windcrest Real Estate Market Like in 2026?

Based on LERA MLS data as of March 2026, ZIP 78239 (which includes Windcrest) shows:

• Median sale price: $263,950 (average $263,020)
• Active listings: 86 | Sold last 6 months: 124
• Average price per sqft: $132.41
• Median days on market: 58 | Average DOM: 78.2
• Months of inventory: 4.2
• List-to-sale ratio: 96.9%

At $524,999, 6326 Mallard Point is priced above the 78239 median — but that gap is entirely justified by what this home offers. The ZIP median captures a wide range of smaller, older homes in the area. At 3,481 sqft with a pool, 3-car garage, and recent upgrades, this property competes in a different tier. The ~$150/sqft price for a pool home with this footprint in the San Antonio metro represents genuine value.

How Does 6326 Mallard Point Represent Value in the Market?

Consider what $524,999 buys in other San Antonio markets versus what it buys at Windcrest:

• In 78255 (Rogers Ranch area), $524,999 buys roughly 2,200–2,400 sqft — no pool, no 3-car garage
• In 78261 (Cibolo Canyons area), $524,999 buys approximately 2,500–2,800 sqft in a similar new-build community
• At Windcrest (78239), $524,999 buys 3,481 sqft with pool, spa, 3-car garage, fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and 6.2-mile proximity to Fort Sam Houston

For buyers who prioritize space per dollar — especially large families, multi-generational households, or buyers who work from home and need dedicated room — Windcrest offers one of the best value propositions in the San Antonio metro.

Is This Home VA Loan Eligible?

Yes. The 2026 VA loan limit is $832,750. At $524,999, veterans with full entitlement can purchase this home with zero down payment and no PMI. The foundation repairs come with a transferable lifetime warranty — a feature that simplifies the VA appraisal process (VA appraisers look closely at structural integrity).

Christopher Beal's Serve & Save program further reduces closing costs based on years of service — 1% per year of service, up to 6%. That's a meaningful reduction on a $524,999 purchase.
